- Task Manager not able to kill programs
- Posted by Bijesh on November 3rd, 2005
hi All,
I am facing problems killing programs using task manager. Even though I try
end process or end process tree, the program is not termination. What could
be the reason or are there any other alternatives?

Too many demands upon memory and / or CPU which is why you probably
tried to End Process. Just be patient.

Hope this helps.

What programs are you trying to kill? Could they be viruses or spyware?

The CPU usage is only 2% but program does not respond. For example I was
trying windows update and it stopped responding even after 1 hr. I tried to
kill but process did not terminate and I was able to work without any
problems on other applications. This happens quite many times.

When dealing with a persistent virus / trojan you need to delete system
restore points and not use them as they will contain the virus and put
it back into your system. Turn off System Restore until cleaning is
finished. Also run your anti-virus with updated definitions in safe
mode. Sometimes you need to run an anti-virus from a floppy and Trend
offer one that can be used.
Create a new folder named Sysclean (e.g., C:\Program files\Sysclean, or
just a desktop folder).
Download Sysclean.com (http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp) and
place it in this folder.
Download the latest Controlled Pattern Release zip
(http://www.trendmicro.com/download/pattern.asp, e.g., lpt123.zip) and
extract its contents to the same folder. See the Readme text file for
additional instructions.
Delete Temporary Internet Files (IE Tools>Internet Options>General)
accepting the option to delete all offline content. Reboot and delete
contents of all TEMP folders and then your Recycle Bin.
Close all running programs including your anti-virus application, go
offline, and run Sysclean. For best results, do nothing with the machine
until the scan completes.
If the scan shows any infections in System Restore files and you're
running WinXP, create a new Restore Point
(Start>Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore), then delete
all but the most recent Restore Point (Start>Programs>Accessories>System
Tools>Disk Cleanup>More options).
Work through the spyware removal programmes etc in turn in safe mode
until you get no results.
Afterwards, update your own anti-virus application and perform another
full system scan.
Finally run HijackThis and post the HijackThis log to the HijackThis
forum here:
